Hello Brookladelphia! I'm back and for now it'll be through style blogging posts. This weekend I had the wonderful chance to attend a wedding. Over the past year I've averaged a wedding every two months. The most recent one was on the Philadelphia side of Brookladelphia. I had a chance to explore The Ben Franklin Parkway and The Rodin Museum wearing my new three piece suit and my first in at least ten years. I like it and I think I'll have to grab more.

Latest & Greatest

Brookladelphia’s Department of Public Interest invited six gentlemen to take part in a discussion to about style and fashion. In the social sphere, extremes are often highlighted. On one side of the spectrum, Men of Color are seen peacocking with colorful suits and on the other, they're decked out in the latest streetwear. These styles are a beautiful thing when done right. But, with today's curated algorithms, we often we find ourselves in a bubble of content, inundated with only one slice of life and experience. This project is aimed at shading in the colors between black and white. Initially, the chat focused on style diversity within the Black experience but developed into an enlightening discussion on what it means to be an American.

I’m happy to be apart of The George Hannah Society at The Brooklyn Historical Society. It's a new initiative and its goal is to promote Brooklyn’s rich history and culture. History is a true love of mine and this partnership will allow me to help share and promote it to Brooklyn, Philadelphia and beyond. Come on out to tonight’s First Friday. It’s all about Love. Valentine’s Day is less than a couple weeks away. Why not look at some vintage love letters straight from the BHS archives. Plus, there will be live music and Brooklyn Brewery beer. Join us tonight Friday, Feb 5th from 5-9pm

Snow bunnies got a healthy dose of snow this weekend. Jonah dumped nearly two feet of snow on Brookladelphia. Once the (snow) dust settled a winter wonder was revealed. It was the first time in a long time, I've been out playing in the snow, instead of working in it. I took full advantage. Enjoy.

Check out my attempt to look professorial as I meandered through Fairmount Park. The background may look familiar. That's because it's the backdrop for "12 Moneys" and M.Night Shyamalan's "The 6th Sense" and most importantly, it's in the same neighborhood as my Alma Mata Franklin Learning Center high school. Take a look at how I put together an outfit that would make me feel right at home in the teachers faculty.

Technology is making our world smaller and allowing artistic expression to become much more accessible. This blog is a clear example of that, but social media has put the movement in overdrive. Photography, a 150 year old piece of technology, used to be a laborious task. Yet, now it can be shared with the world in seconds, thanks to social media apps like Instagram. This past weekend I had the wonderful chance to take over The YesWilliamsburg Instagram feed and show off my photography (and fashion) skills.

Celebrating the new year and my birthday was a lot of fun. I picked up some nice accessories for the evening. I had a celebratory red lapel flower and a champagne pin from Pintrill, a local (Brooklyn Based) pin shop. The fireworks at Penn's Landing might be the best fireworks I've seen. The real treat began earlier in the day with my birthday present, a drone!
